Book Description
Excerpt from Occasional Sermons and Addresses A number of the discourses contained in this volume have been previously in print. In publishing them with others the author has yielded to the request of friends, in whose judgment he has entire confidence. In this more permanent form it is hoped they may subserve the interests of education and true religion. The titles and the occasions on which they were deliv ered will sufficiently indicate their character. The author regrets that the pressure of public duties has not permitted him to give to these pages that thorough revision which would render the volume more worthy the attention of those who take an interest in these.

Book Description
Excerpt from Sermons, Addresses and Essays The book is issued as a real though very inadequate memorial of a life devoted to the noblest ideals and of a robust and rare intelligence - a life and an intelligence such as only those who knew and loved Herbert Rix can ever duly appraise; nor indeed can they. The words Of this book are his, but the influence and charm Of another is here also: the spirit of Alice Rix breathes through its pages as a presence of light and beauty and joy.

Excerpt from The Larger Life: Sermons and an EssayThe title of this collection of sermons has been happily chosen. It admirably indicates their motive and character. There is the larger life in Christ as well as the higher life in Him. As the one mounts voluntarily to heights of self-renunciation in His service which are over and above the level of His mere command, so the other pene trates more deeply the mind and will of God in Him, sees the marvellous depth and scope of the Truth He taught in all its endless applications, and rejoices to live and act in this wider outlook and range as they cannot who only narrowly believe and blindly obey.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Occasional Essays T is now twenty - five years, Since, encouraged by the kind words of Very Rev. Father Hecker, I first put pen to paper to write for the public. During that time, as circumstances permitted, I sent to the Cat/zolz'c World, and to some other periodicals, articles on various Subjects of current interest, with a view to keeping informed the young men of America, especially, of what it seemed to me important they should know. And, as the truth and the interests of the Church were What Isought to have them appreciate, I have judged it useful still to have the same things recalled to the mind of my former readers, and placed before the eyes of those who are now the young men of our country, as embodying a great deal which seems to me of the very first importance. With these few words of explanation, I publish this volume of occasional essays, submitting what I have written and my self, as I hope they will always in like manner do, to the.

Book Description
Excerpt from Lectures, Essays, and Sermons Is not this a strange world that runs thoughtlessly on through all this living, speaking loveliness, which seems to point every moment toward the God whose hand is form ing and fashioning all before all eyes? How few there are who seem to have any but a theoretical belief that there is something at work around us besides the trees, the flowers, the clouds, and the sun! We see them at work, and ask no further; ask not who makes them work, who gives them all their loveliness and liberty and life. What should we do but fall down and adore before this visible creation of an invisible and all-pervading Being?

Book Description
Christians know that God loves them, but can easily feel that he is perpetually disappointed and frustrated, maybe even close to giving up on them. As a result, they focus a lot—and rightly so—on what Jesus has done to appease God’s wrath for sin. But how does Jesus Christ actually feel about his people amid all their sins and failures? This book draws us to Matthew 11, where Jesus describes himself as “gentle and lowly in heart,” longing for his people to find rest in him. The gospel flows from God’s deepest heart for his people, a heart of tender love for the sinful and suffering. These chapters take readers into the depths of Christ’s very heart for sinners, diving deep into Bible passages that speak of who Christ is and encouraging readers with the affections of Christ for his people. His longing heart for sinners comforts and sustains readers in their up-and-down lives.
